Warm chorizo butterbeans in a smoky red pepper base, perfect to warm you up today! The flavours of this were just delicious, the herby dressing really takes it to another level, it’s perfect paired with a big hunk of sourdough! Ingredients: 1 chorizo sausage (mine was a plantbased one) 700g butterbeans 1/2 a shallot or red onion 500g jar of red peppers 4 cloves of garlic 2 tbsp tomato paste 1 tsp smoked paprika 1/2 a tsp cayenne pepper (or to taste) 1 tsp oregano 200ml veg stock Herb dressing: 1 tbsp chopped basil 1 tbsp chopped parsley 1 tbsp chopped chives 1/4 tbsp minced garlic 1/2 a lemon, juiced 2-3 tbsp olive oil Salt and pepper Almonds to top Method: Dice the onion, peppers and chorizo. If using real chorizo, fry it first for 5 minutes to get crispy edges and then remove and cook the rest in the released chorizo oils. Sauté the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes and then add the peppers and garlic. Cook down for another 5 minutes and then add the spices, chorizo and tomato paste. Mix well and cook for another minute before adding the beans and stock. Stir it all up and let it simmer for 10 minutes until thick. Meanwhile, grate the garlic for the dressing into a bowl and cover with salt and lemon juice whilst you chop the rest of the herbs. Add these in too along with the olive oil. Once the chorizo beans are thick, leave to cool for a minute and then drizzle with the herb dressing and slithered almonds
